    Another Fili Friday for me Gents ... Took this one back to the stones last night and made some real progress. I used a magnifier to gain a better understanding and it worked! Just as sharp but much smoother than I have achieved in the past but no where near the edge Glen put on my Monkhouse. Im encouraged tho and know that I can Get there . Have a great weekend Gents!

    I really like that razor. If you ever feel the urge to sell it, just send it to me with a bill. Just lovely.

    Thanks for the update Carl. Hope its the last time he's in there.

    Well it's been about 3 years since I made a SOTD Post.

    Razor - J.A. Henckels, Twin Works (My camera on the blink so no Shaving Porn)
    Lather - Dove body soap with VDH Shaving soap and 6 drops of Glyn
    Strop - B&B 23" leather
    Mug - Very Large Mug (had a small plant in it at one time)

    I just received the razor Yesterday and all I did was Strop it 100 times.. It shaved good, But needs some honing. Not as good as My W&B Bow razor.
